Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

There is a scarcity in the current literature regarding such appliance and its effect on distalizing the first maxillary molar in absence of the second molar. Therefore, this study was made to evaluate the effect of bilateral distalization of upper first molars in a group of patients after extraction of maxillary second Molars using infra zygomatic mini implants.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Device: Intra-Oral Distalizing Device
N/A

Detailed Description

The appliances available for distalization used to be mainly extraoral distalizing appliances which depended entirely on patient cooperation and compliance. Even after the emergence of intra-oral distalizing appliances they had adverse dentoalveolar effect such as anchorage loss and flaring of the upper anterior teeth. Thus, this study was made in order to evaluate the efficiency of our proposed appliance in the treatment of Class II patients while avoiding the adverse effects mentioned above.

Study Design

Study Type:
Interventional
Actual Enrollment :
10 participants
Allocation:
N/A
Intervention Model:
Single Group Assignment
Masking:
None (Open Label)
Masking Description:
Due to the nature of the study, the operator and patients can't be blinded. Blinding of the outcome assessors can be done by sealing the name of the patient in the pre and post treatment radiographs used for analysis

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Intra-oral Distalizing Appliance

Two infra zygomatic mini-implants will be placed Bands will be cemented to upper first molars. The inner bow (1.2mm) is a modified version of the inner part of a conventional face bow. Two hooks were soldered onto the inner bow distal to the lateral incisor teeth regions, and U loop at 1st premolar region, and bends acting as mesial stop will be bent in front of the maxillary first molars. Orthodontic force 300 mg per side Will be delivered by Niti closed coil spring which is attached from infra zygomatic mini screw to the hook soldered to the wire framework.

Device: Intra-Oral Distalizing Device
The inner bow (1.2mm) is a modified version of the inner part of a conventional face bow. Two hooks were soldered onto the inner bow distal to the lateral incisor teeth regions, and U loop at 1st premolar region, and bends acting as mesial stop will be bent in front of the maxillary first molars. The anterior component of the inner bow is 3 mm free from the labial surface of anterior teeth

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. linear distalization of maxillary 1st molar. [Up until Class I Molar Relation (a maximum of 8 months regardless)]

    Efficiency of the proposed appliance to induce distalization of the upper 1st molar measured on Scanned dental casts as well as cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in millimetres.

  2. Rate of maxillary 1st molar Distalization in mm/ month. [Up until Class I Molar Relation (a maximum of 8 months regardless)]

    Efficiency of the proposed appliance to induce distalization of the upper 1st molar measured on Scanned dental casts with a monthly follow up in millimetres.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Changes in Intermolar width in mm. [Up until Class I Molar Relation (a maximum of 8 months regardless)]

    Effect of the proposed appliance on the transverse Dental changes in the upper buccal segment through scanned dental cast in millimetres

  2. Changes of Molar inclination in degrees. [Up until Class I Molar Relation (a maximum of 8 months regardless)]

    Effect of the proposed appliance on the angulation of the first permanent molar through scanned dental cast and cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) in degrees.
